*Please share and sign the petition!* Yesterday, we learned that the NB Department of Agriculture, Aquaculture and Fisheries will be discontinuing all provincial veterinary services by March 31, 2027. In case you weren't aware, most large animal vets in NB are employed by the provincial government, ensuring our small rural communities have access to the vet services and medications they need. We are one of hundreds of farms these vets service.
Vets are a cornerstone in the management of the health and welfare of our cows. Not only are they essential in emergency situations, but also in preventing illness in our herd, and managing conditions to make safe and healthy food for New Brunswickers. We need vets, and if this decision is not overturned quickly, we may lose our skilled and talented vets elsewhere.
Please reach out to your local MLAs to voice your concerns, as well as the Minister of NB Department of Agriculture, Aquaculture, and Fisheries, Pat Finnigan - [email protected]
